TED - Contract notices 2008

Description

TED data has multiple levels. Contract notices (CNs) is a filled in standard forms 2, 5 or 17. ID_notice_cn is an ID of a CN. These levels serve different purposes. To give an example, a CN informs on a future purchase (“The ministry would like to buy furniture”).
2.6. Older data has lower quality, because the data collection structure was less developed (see “XSD_version” variable in the codebook below). Furthermore, in September 2008, the common procurement vocabulary was changed . For these reasons, it may often be best to only use data from 2009 onwards.
